Pajarito Astronomers Meeting Notice - 'Why Should a Scientist be Concerned about UFO's?'
Meeting notice from the Pajarito Astronomers club announcing a presentation by Dr. John Warren titled 'Why Should a Scientist be Concerned about UFO's?' scheduled for May 29, 1986 at Fuller Lodge.
Analysis
Thirty-five years after green fireballs terrorized the nuclear labs, a Los Alamos National Laboratory scientist was still asking the question. Dr. John Warren of AT-6 division gave a presentation titled "Why Should a Scientist be Concerned about UFO's?" to the Pajarito Astronomers on May 29, 1986 at Fuller Lodge. The title implies an affirmative argument -- not "should they be?" but "why should they be." A single-page meeting announcement, but it shows the thread of scientific UFO interest at Los Alamos never fully broke.
Key Findings
- Dr. John Warren of AT-6 division at Los Alamos National Laboratory gave a presentation on scientific UFO concerns
- The Pajarito Astronomers, a local astronomical society, hosted the talk at Fuller Lodge
- The presentation title implies a case for legitimate scientific engagement with the UFO topic
- This demonstrates that UFO interest persisted among scientists at Los Alamos decades after the 1948-1951 green fireball era
